        I would not hesitate to go straight to DB again
        The team at David Burr Leavenheath helped us through our house sale in exceptionally difficult conditions, we had to fight through Brexit decisions, Christmas lulls and then the Covid outbreak + lockdowns. Jack was always professional, helpful and gave us the right guidance and told us what we had to hear even if it wasn't what we wanted to hear (circumstantial difficulties out of anyone's control at the time). I've dealt with other agents like Savills and they're not a scratch on DB and the team in Leavenheath. I would not hesitate to go straight to DB again for buying or selling, overall a great experience and service.
